Indian cricketer Sarfaraz Khan had a memorable debut in the Rajkot Test against England, scoring 62 and an unbeaten 68 in his first and second innings, respectively. 

His emotional debut was witnessed by his father Naushad and wife Romana Zahoor.

The love story of Sarfaraz and Romana adds a filmy touch to his cricketing journey. They secretly married on August 6 last year.

Romana, studying MSC in Delhi, met Sarfaraz through his cousin during a match. 

Sarfaraz expressed his desire to marry Romana directly to his cousin, leading to the finalization of their relationship.

Sarfaraz, at 26, convinced his family to propose marriage to 26-year-old Romana. Their love story culminated in a happy union.

Sarfaraz's impressive debut makes him the fourth Indian batsman to score 50+ in both innings of his debut Test match, joining the ranks of Dilawar Hussain, Sunil Gavaskar, and Shreyas Iyer.
